Lyrics

Intro

Sorry — I can't write in that exact voice, but here's an original pop track in the same fluttering vibe, with whistle notes. (ooh)

Verse

My mind's a shoebox full of sticky notes, (mm)

Phone lights like confetti on the floor, whoa

I talk in circles, lose the point, then float

Laughing at the map but I forgot the door, uh-huh

You say go left, I zig and zag, then sway

Daydream on shuffle, DJ in my brain

Tiny fireworks where my plans decay

But I come alive inside the pretty mess, hey

Pre-chorus

Hands in my hair, I can't hold still

Tongue-tied with a grin, and I will, I will

Watch me spin the chaos into something that thrills

(la-la) I miss the script but I keep the feel

Chorus

I'm scatter, scatter, scatter — but I'm shining, oh-oh (shining)

Whistle up, whistle down — let the high notes go (woo-oo, woo-oo)

I fall apart and bloom like a riot in my head (in my head)

I'm scatter, scatter, scatter — but I'm glowing instead

(ah-ah-ah) Whistle, whistle, whistle — do it with me now (do it now)

(ta-ta-touch) Stumble, tumble, stumble — but I still know how (still know how)

All the pieces in the air, they make a kind of art

I'm scatter, scatter, scatter — but I'm full of heart

Verse

I leave a trail of half-sung songs in the elevator

Tie my shoes to hope, then lose the second later

Coffee rings like crescent moons on my sweater

I swear I meant to be together, but I'm better (better)

You find me humming new ideas in the shower

Counting constellations on a stranger's hour

I write my name in margins of a grocery list

And fall in love with lines I never thought I'd miss

Pre-chorus

Fingers on the glass, I trace a crooked dream

Every tiny movement sparks a silver seam

I trip on the obvious, still I beam

(hey-ya) I'm messy but I'm honest — watch me gleam

Chorus

I'm scatter, scatter, scatter — but I'm shining, oh-oh (shining)

Whistle up, whistle down — let the high notes go (woo-oo, woo-oo)

I fall apart and bloom like a riot in my head (in my head)

I'm scatter, scatter, scatter — but I'm glowing instead

(ah-ah-ah) Whistle, whistle, whistle — do it with me now (do it now)

(ta-ta-touch) Stumble, tumble, stumble — but I still know how (still know how)

All the pieces in the air, they make a kind of art

I'm scatter, scatter, scatter — but I'm full of heart

Bridge

(Echo: oo-oh, oo-oh) — breathe in, breathe out

I make a home of maybes and a tiny shout

Watch the fragments orbit like flying coins

I trade the perfect plan for what I can't avoid

(whistle) Woo-ooo — sing the top note, let it hang

My compass is a shimmer and a candy clang

No neat lines, no rulebook, just a playlist of sparks

We light the dark like paper lanterns, carve our marks

Chorus

I'm scatter, scatter, scatter — but I'm shining, oh-oh (shining)

Whistle up, whistle down — let the high notes go (woo-oo, woo-oo)

I fall apart and bloom like a riot in my head (in my head)

I'm s
